PREMIERE

A FORMER JUNKIE IS IMPRISONED FOR MURDERING HER FATHER,
ON THE PREMIERE OF ABC�S �IN JUSTICE,� SUNDAY, JANUARY 1

The ABC Television Network will air the premiere of its new midseason drama, �In Justice,� on SUNDAY, JANUARY 1 (10:00-11:00 p.m., ET), it was announced today by Stephen McPherson, president, ABC Entertainment. The premiere will immediately follow an all new �Desperate Housewives� recap special entitled �All the Juicy Details.�

�In Justice� will have its regular time period premiere Friday, January 6 (9:00-10:00 p.m., ET).

�In Justice� is a completely new take on the procedural drama. Focusing on cases of justice run amok -- sloppy police work, false testimony and biased juries -- the National Justice Project is a high-profile, non-profit organization made up of hungry young associates who approach their work like a puzzle� a puzzle that�s been put together wrong. They fight to overturn wrongful convictions, liberate the falsely accused and discover the identity of those really to blame. They�re led in their task by modern-day heroes, David Swain, a blustery but charismatic attorney of questionable ethics but undeniable talent, and his chief investigator, Charles Conti, a former cop.

�Our aim is to use the valuable real estate following �Desperate Housewives� to introduce viewers to this compelling new drama,� McPherson said. �Because �Grey�s Anatomy� would have been a repeat on that night, fans of that show won�t be missing out. It�s a win-win.�

In the premiere episode, �Brothers and Sisters,� the National Justice Project takes on the case of a 32-year-old former junkie imprisoned for murdering her father while robbing his house.
